    Dam-dam, dam-du-dam, doo-bee-doo
    Dam-dam, dam-du-dam, doo-bee-doo
    Dam-dam, dam-du-dam, doo-bee-doo
    Dam-dam, dam-du-dam, doo-bee-doo

    I am Doolittle but I do a lot
    I try to do the best with what I've got
    Sometimes nobody notices at all
    If I stood on a chair, I'd be taller

    I know there's a million people like me
    I'm sure a kick up the bum's all we need
    We plan but it never comes true
    All I need is somebody like you

    Because I'm missing how you found me
    I can't afford a bigger world but, baby, I'm reliable
    I'll never go
    If you find me, find me, find me, find me

    Because I'm missing how you found me
    If anybody has a key to spare a little dream for me
    I'll let it be
    That you find me, find me, finally found me

    When I fall nobody helps me up
    And when I call nobody's pickin' up the phone
    It seems they won't even throw me a bone
    Stickin' my face on a lamppost

    So if you see me in your favorite spot
    Just remember I could give you a lot
    'Cause I stray in whatever I do
    All I need is somebody like you

    Because I'm missing how you found me
    I can't afford a bigger world but, baby, I'm reliable
    I'll never go
    If you find me, find me, find me, find me

    Because I'm missing how you found me
    If anybody has a key to spare a little dream for me
    I'll let it be
    That you find me, find me, finally found me

    I gotta get up
    I gotta get up
    I gotta get up
    I gotta get up

    So when you see me in your favorite spot
    Just remember I could give you a lot
    I came to see you when there's no use pretendin'
    Let's hope it's a happier ending

    Because I'm missing, yeah, you'll find me
    I can't afford a bigger world but, baby, I'm reliable
    I'll never go
    If you find me, find me, find me, find me

    Because I'm missing and you'll find me
    If anybody has a key to spare a little dream for me
    I'll let it be
    That you finally, finally, finally found me
